Sustainability

Our Philosophy

When you hear the term "sustainable development" what comes to mind?

A majority of the population will think of a definition similar to that found in Our Common Future (the Brundtland Report), that explains that "sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs." Today, sustainability definitions use buzzwords such as "environmentally friendly", "green", "carbon footprint", and "energy efficiency."

Now take "sustainable" and pair it with "roofing." What comes to mind?

We believe that sustainable roofing is an evolving concept that requires an aggressive and pro-active approach in the fields of research, production and practice. We have been a leader in this endeavor with over 30+ years of proven in place performance with the family of Derbigum Roofing System Solutions. We also recognize that sustainable products stem from sustainable practices and proudly demonstrate our commitment by adhering to the highest standards of our ISO 9001-2000 and ISO 14001-2004 certification.

Our philosophy is that sustainability is a combination of sustainable production, sustainable systems and sustainable relationships.
